There is three reasons:
1. Their defense is so weak that simple runs are scoring opportunities.
2. They are affraid of a comeback which is always possible.
3. Stats are important. Some peoples pay is based on scoring. Scoring is also used to add money when contracts expire. People pay more for a high scoring WR over a WR that always caught the ball yet never scored a point. Players also like to break scoring records and will take every opertunity to do so.

Because winning is the only thing.
The people that say winning isn't everything usually don't win much and are teaching younger students.
In reality, you either win or loose. It's like playing Monopoly, either you win or you wasted your time, there is no inbetween.
besides, keeping score lets everyone know that you had a moment where you were the best/worst and that things can change.

Obviously everyone wants to play to win, winning is most of the reason people play sports. to win the National Championship, World Series, etc. and without keeping score, would sports mean as much? sports is about the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, if you lose you come back next game/year with a hungrier attitude to win, try telling coaches winning isnt everything. but then you also have to show good sportsmanship, if u win, win with class, if u lose, u go down fighting, and take the loss with class.

How approximately "relish the sport and learn from you errors" -- incredibly we amateur gamers. and that i like the factor from the 1st poster. triumphing is something -- purely not each and every thing. it may be an exciting subject now if the Harlequins had gained the Heineken Cup knock-out experience against Leicester through fact of that pretend blood substitution. and then long previous directly to "win" the Heineken Cup. could triumphing be each and every thing then, as quickly as the tale got here out?

Because winning matters. Those who say it don't are the ones who are losing.

Gosh, where have I heard that before? How about this one, "It's not if you win or lose, but how you play the game".
